IPcam VCA/Dual VCA #23

Closed strarsis closed 2 years ago

strarsis commented 2 years ago

IPcam VCA feature allows to offload some types of recognition to the IPcam (outmost edge?). With Dual VCA, the IPcam sends the interesting areas on a 2nd stream, so software can use it. Do IPcams have a dedicated chipset for motion recognition that could help with performance in frigate?

I don't know much about VCA, I suppose that if the 2nd stream is set up as camera input in Watsor it will be used for detection.

I don't think that any IP camera has a chipset capable to perform object detection inference.
